Healing my disabled husband novel Chapter 144

Miles didn't take River's threat seriously.

He chuckled lightly and said, "Mr. Knight, you should also know that the cooperation between your sister and Globalhive Pictures is only a matter of time. As long as she has this wish, Globalhive is the best choice. Now, I'm just offering in advance. Why don't you fulfill this beautiful thing?”

River almost laughed at Miles' words.

He had never seen such a brazen person.

Globalhive Pictures was the best choice? Could it be that it was difficult for the Knight family to start up a company like that?

He really couldn't bear Miles' look like this.

River said, "Mr. Hayden, it's not a good thing to be opportunistic. I advise you don't be so naive."

There was really nothing Miles could do about his intransigence.

If this matter hadn't involved Matilda, he would have used a more straightforward method.

Now, for Matilda's sake, he had to give in again and again.

River also noticed this. Although Miles' request was shameless, it was indeed not his usual way of doing things.

Suddenly he thought of something and looked at Miles with extra meaning.

River sneered and asked suddenly, "Why don't you tell me who is the lady who caused the trouble? Maybe, I don't mind doing you a favor to help you solve this matter."

Miles' eyes suddenly darkened.

What River said was clearly trying to trick him.

He chuckled lightly and said, "Why so troublesome? With your ability, you must have checked it out from the moment we stepped here."

"What people can find is limited after all," River said, "I don't think it's that simple between you and that Miss Duncan."

Miles didn't make a sound, just looked at River with dark eyes, and kept silent about the relationship between Matilda and him.

The interest in River's eyes intensified a bit, and it was the first time he saw Miles treat a woman with such an attitude. If he believed that their relationship was innocent, he would really be a fool.

His eyes fell back on Leo, who was still lying on the ground. His eyes were dark and complex. For a long time, he let out a low smile and said, "The Haydens owe a debt of gratitude to the Knight family. Mr. Hayden, would you acknowledge it?"

The implication was that if he wanted to use his sister to settle this matter, it was wishful thinking. Not only will he not help solve this matter, but maybe he will add fuel to the flames.

However, if in the name of the Hayden family, they owed a favor from the Knight family, then it would be a different matter.

Miles' eyes were dark, and he thought deeply that this man was really difficult to deal with.

The Hayden family owed the Knight family, and if the Hayden family were really required to pay it back, the Haydens would probably be dragged into doom.

River really made a good plan.

However, after being silent for a long time, Miles finally made a decision.

"Okay, the promise is granted." Miles said.

River smiled more meaningfully, raised his brows lightly, and said, "You really impressed me."

To actually make such a big promise for a woman, if this matter got spread, the entire wealthy circles will be shocked.

Miles ignored the deep meaning in River's words, stopped dealing with him, and only said, "Then I will trouble you."

After speaking, Miles returned to the room.

River looked at the closed door, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.

He was really curious what kind of magical power did that woman have that actually allowed Miles to do this.

In the room, Matilda had been sitting bored for a long time.

At first she opened the door to see what was going on outside, but she couldn't see anything, which made her feel bored, so she closed the door, sat on a chair and waited for Miles.

Seeing him come back, she asked, "Is it settled?"

"Of course." Miles smiled, looking calm, without the slightest bit of sharpness when confronting River just now.

He said, "Don't worry. He was looking troubles himself, and he can't blame it on you."

Matilda laughed when she heard this.

She propped her chin, looked at Miles, and said, "So, do you think I'm scared?"

Miles looked up at her and said, "That's not true. You don't seem like someone who would be scared."

How can a person who was scared beat Leo like that?

Especially with Leo's rickety degree, he knew how hard Matilda had done to make him hurt like that.

Matilda said, "Actually, I can solve it myself."

She really had nothing to be afraid of, and besides, if she can't figure it out on her own, then there was Aimee.

However, she didn't expect that Miles would directly take care of this matter.

Miles said, "I brought you here and caused you to be harassed. I should be responsible. This matter has been resolved now, so don't think about it anymore."

Matilda shrugged her shoulders, and didn't say anything more after hearing that.

She just found it weird that Miles didn't seem like a man who would do such a thing, and yet do that to this extent for her.

She couldn't understand more and more that she was just a cash cow for him, and he was protecting her too much.

Stop thinking about it, Miles didn't forget the main purpose of bringing Matilda here.

He hadn't asked the waiter to serve the dishes just now, but now he called people in.

The dishes of Restaurant Gastrognome all had strange names. Just by looking at the names, it was impossible to think of the corresponding dishes.

When ordering food just now, every time Matilda saw a dish, she was in confusion. Now that the dish was served, she was speechless.

It turned out that all the dishes of Restaurant Gastrognome were place names, and each place name corresponded to a local shop. This dish was the main dish of that shop.

Miles suddenly thought of one thing that River's mother was from Rankhaus, where there seemed to be a small town called Gastrognome.

Obviously, the name here was for River who was in memory of his mother.

But those who didn't understand this will not know River's intentions at all, and will only think that this was a way to attract people's attention.

Just like Matilda, she didn't know that there was a place called Gastrognome, let alone that all the dishes were named after the local place of Gastrognome.

Every time she ate a dish, she couldn't help complaining, "It's delicious, but the name is too strange."
